What do you get for the man that has everything?

Just kidding, the guy's practically a beggar. I need an idea for a present for a friend, and I'm stumped. He'll probably like anything that's a video game though, and he probably has every single game system ever made so please give me your input on this situation.

Re: What do you get for the man that has everything?

He's on the bowling team, but I don't think I'll be getting him a bowling ball (he already has one, plus he's not really a bowling fanatic), and especially not one signed by a professional bowler champion (if they even exist).

He likes using his Wii as a gamecube, and his (I would have to guess) PS2 the most, maybe.

Re: What do you get for the man that has everything?

That game looks completely stupid, just like every other FF game ever.
He might enjoy it!  tongue

Does anyone know if that game is out yet though?

Re: What do you get for the man that has everything?

Just get him a gift card to Walmart or something and let him pick. That's always the easy way out.

Re: What do you get for the man that has everything?

Oh, that's it! Money is the perfect gift. Now I don't even have to use plan GF (even though I couldn't use it though because kidnapping and/or blackmail are illegal here) (Plan GF is getting him a girl friend)

Re: What do you get for the man that has everything?

This is where gift cards come in handy. When you can't think of anything to get someone, they never fail.

One thing you should also try (if he has a sense of humor) is to put in some kind of canned food from the pantry and hide his actual gift underneath. It just keeps the gift from being too straightforward.  tongue

I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.
